Frequently asked questions
Why send a repair request in writing?
A dated written request creates evidence that the landlord was put on notice. This matters if the repair is delayed, if you need to escalate, or if there is any later dispute about the condition of the property.
How much detail should I include?
Be specific: what the issue is, where in the property it is, when you first noticed it, and how it is affecting day-to-day use. Vague reports are easier to dismiss or delay.
Should I include photos?
Photos help, but keep them in the email alongside the PDF rather than embedded in the letter itself. The PDF is the formal written record; the photos are supporting evidence.
What if the landlord still does not act?
Keep the PDF and any reply you receive. If you later need to involve your local council, a housing officer, or a tribunal, a dated written request is one of the most important pieces of evidence.
How long is the result kept?
The repair request PDF is auto-deleted after 7 days. Re-download is available during that window via the secure link.
